Now, what exactly is a ZR2? Well a ZR2 is a factory installed off-road performance option package for those who want to have a little more upscale ride and comfort and for those who want to take their vehicles into spots that others cannot venture.  Now, if you still are not convinced below is a list of the factory modifications that are made to make the RPO ZR2 stand out from the crowd:

•  RPO ZR2 only full ladder-type frame with modified suspension mounting points which provide:

•  100mm wider track (3.9 inches wider than regular S-10)

•  Three-inch suspension height increase

•  Enhanced front (7.25" ring gear) and rear (8.5" ring gear) axles w/  3.73:1 rear-axle ratio

•  Larger wheel and axle bearings

•  31 x 10.5R-15 LT/C black wall off-road tires (BFG A/Ts on pickups and BFG Long Trails on BlaZeR2)

•  46mm gas pressurized Bilstein Monotube shocks

•  Rear axle track bar (pickups) / rear sway bar (BlaZeR2)

•  Wheel flares (black on S-10 pickups and BlaZeR2 / body-color on Sonoma pickups)

•  33mm (early model) / 28mm  (late model) front anti-sway bar

•  Skid plates
